Product Overview
This Nickel plasma standard solution from Specpure® delivers a certified 10µg/ml concentration in a high-purity matrix, specifically formulated for demanding trace metal analysis. The solution is prepared using ultra-high-purity reagents and deionized water to minimize background contamination, ensuring reliable calibration curves and accurate quantification in ICP-OES and AAS workflows. The Specpure® grade guarantees consistency across batches, with each lot undergoing rigorous quality control to verify concentration accuracy and stability. Packaged in a 100ml HDPE bottle with a tamper-evident seal, the solution maintains integrity during storage and handling. Its low-acid matrix (typically 2-5% HNO₃) prevents precipitation while remaining compatible with most instrument configurations. The solution’s extended shelf life under proper storage conditions (2-8°C) reduces waste and ensures long-term usability for routine laboratory operations.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this Nickel plasma standard solution?
The solution remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at 2-8°C. Once opened, use within 6 months for optimal accuracy.
2. Is this solution compatible with organic solvents?
This aqueous-based standard is not designed for organic solvent dilution. For organic matrices, consider a nickel organometallic standard or consult compatibility guidelines.
3. Can this be used for environmental water testing?
Yes, the low contamination risk and certified concentration make it suitable for environmental water analysis when properly diluted to match sample ranges.
4. What’s the typical matrix composition?
The solution contains 2-5% nitric acid (HNO₃) in deionized water, optimized for stability without interfering with most analytical techniques.
5. Are there lower concentration alternatives available?
For applications requiring dilutions below 10µg/ml, serial dilution using the same acid matrix is recommended to maintain stability and accuracy.
